Default Blue Digital Gauges

Well I bought some blue digital gauges but Glowshift didn't make a Fuel level gauge so I went with a Cyberdyne, which looks very similar but it didn't come with a shade cup like the others so I had to order that separately from Glowshift.. So while I'm waiting for that to arrive I decided to mount them and bench test them and they all work great except the fuel level gauge so now I don't know if its the gauge, the way I hooked it up or the float sensor in the tank.. The lower part of the gauge where the gas pump is located lights up fine (as you can see) but the center where the actual level is shown doesn't work at all. When I first hooked it up it was very dim and said "LOW" but now its not doing anything at all.. It figures, the most expensive of the 5 gauges, which is a completely different brand, is already defective.. I will say this, these Glowshift gauges are sweet!! They came with everything you need and with the shade cups they fit the C3 gauge bezel holes like a glove!! The cyberdyne doesnt fit the hole well but should once the shade cup is installed.

Cyberdyne? You do realize they are going to give rise to the machines. Your car is now going to kill you.
